BIKE STARTING PROBLEMS, PLEASE HELP!!

[makaveli2502]

ok so i put new jets in, couldnt figure out where the hoses go, but i got all the fuel hoses in the right place, but not sure if the vaccum lines or what. but it idles pretty good, but when i throttle it up the bike dies (its a gs500f 05) any ideas?

[3imo]

eh?!

So you put in new jets?
ok

you had an issue with the hoses?  but you cleared that up?
ok

but you arent sure about the vaccum lines?  The bike idles ok, but dies when you throttle up.

If I read you right, please let us know at what RPMs your idleing at.   also reference this http://www.gstwin.com/fuel_hose_routing.htm

Kerry kicks ass!!!!!

[makaveli2502]

haha ya he does. ok so it idels around 1200 rpm's  you can open the clutch up all the way and it ideals around 4k rpm's  any ideas?

[makaveli2502]

ok, so the 2 hoses that come from the solenoid on the bottom of the right carb, one is on the right carb (white nipple on top of carb) and the other is on the left carb.  but there is a black cylinder thing mounted ahead of the carbs on the right side on a bar and it has a thing hose that has a purple stripe, and there is also a thin hose with  a purple stripe that comes from the frame mounted pet chicken, where do those 2 hoses need to go?

I posted in response to the other thread... you only need to post your question once here, we're pretty good at answering everyone's questions... and also, next time you create a thread, please don't use all caps for the title, it's really not needed to get attention around here

This is why I've avoided posting or trying to help in all of his threads.  I think my reluctance has been justified by his reactions.  OMGWTFBBQ?! dosen't help us help you.

[makaveli2502]

[Egaeus]

Starts with Grow, ends with Brain.

[makaveli2502]

ooh haha whatever dude this is my first bike and i just now started using this site more.. so i dont know much about it yet

[Egaeus]

And that's okay.  However, when you get all panicky and yell "I don't understand!" you're not helping yourself, and you're disinclining others to help you.  Now, if you can say what it is that you don't understand, then you can get someone to help you.

whats number 46 in that diagram?, i never saw that thing whatever it is and also where does hose 59 go? thanks everyone for the help so far!

[LimaXray]

46 is a check valve I believe... it should be there, but I don't think it looks like the picture, it's probably a lot shorter

hose 59 goes to the white nipple on the left carb (right carb in the diagram)

Very well said Egaeus. 

I tried researching this issue but I can't find anything on GS's 05' and above.  best bet is to find someone on this site with the same bike willing to take a look and try to give Makaveli a hand.

MAkaveli welcome to GStwin.  You'll be sipping the koolaide soon enough.

ok guys i took out the new pilot jets i put in and i put the stock ones back in, it runs now, but bogs down a tiny bit  so i guess thats a start, but i dont know what went wrong when i put the new ones in, and i has the k&n air filter wth the 130 pilot jets and took both out and put stock air filter and stock pilot jets back in, runs a lot better, any ideas on a reason why it acted like that with the new air filter and new 130 pilot?

130 is not a pilot jet size.  You pilot jet will be somewhere in the neighborhood of 40.  130 sounds more like a main jet.
